There were many mentions of simplified articulation, but I only saw it in the neck. This one may have actually increased articulation with the individual posable fingers. And I'm not sure if the simulated ankle rocker piece is a new point of articulation or if that was on the original too.
Love a good ko! They are always hit and miss but I only intend to display this in robot mode and for the price point it's perfect. I always felt the colours on the original were inaccurate and this ko is closer to the movie, especially with all the added detail. Thanks for the shield tip off. I'll get the sand paper out for that one. Thanks for sharing!
Ooff.. that mistransformation tho.. sagging wings.. So the only difference with UT version is scale.. paint.. and neck articulation. If this figure would have come out a year sooner I would have gotten this over UT.. just for the scale alone.
They didn't simplify anything. The head is slightly less articulated because it's a new sculpt that has LEDs in the eyes. That's literally the only difference. This is why worshiping reviewers is a terrible idea. They say "simplifications" over and over again and you just believe them instead of using your own eyes.
Great review, looking forward to when mines arrives love the accurate added details and paint in the KO. And yes the sword is accurate to the movie it didn’t have those gold accents. Will have the KO displayed for the robot mode and the UT as his alt.
Just got mine. The company claims they added more die-cast parts, and maybe they did in the lower foot area. (I don't own Unique Toys version for comparison). But I can tell from watching an Emgo transformation video of the UT version, that this version has changed a few internal diecast angle-hinge parts to just plastic. Sad face.
C'mon Ben, I like your video, but can you get a bit more specific when doing a comparison. Like in this case, you are saying they simplified the articulation and made it a bit "less good", but that kind of review is somewhat lazy in my opinion. I know you mentioned the head and the shield, but that's it. It'd be better if you do, maybe, a side by side comparison.
If I liked TLK more, I would buy this and Challenger cause I love the designs. But I'm getting Movie Leader Optimus Prime and some kind of MPM styled Megatron.
just out of curiosity, how does this guy feel in hand compared to unique toys dragoon? Does he feel cheap and hollow or does he feel like a quality piece?
I'm glad I waited to get Dragoon, because I definitely like Skybreaker more. The light up eyes, better paint and detail, not so big. I just ordered mine.
Where have you guys been? Wei jiang has been shut down already. Owner and a few other people have been arrested and charged. Wei jiang ain't coming back.
Problem is it doesn’t look like megatron now. And it being smaller is a bad call. If your gonna do it you need to upscale. Just a bunch of bad choices here. Imo
Except the new head sculpt on Sky Breaker looks way more like TLK Megatron than Dragoon does. And there’s literally no point in upscaling a figure that was already too big for most collections.
What a coincidence, I just ordered one for myself yesterday. Thanks for the review!
I'll be waiting for YOUR review now lol
Nice. I hope you like it.
The man liked Dragoon so much that had to get a KO of it! And he barely reviews a KO, I mean, I don't remember a single KO Jobby reviewed
Jobbyyyyyyyy
Gonna be waiting for yours, i cant stand this guys' half assed reviews.

If you question him at all he calls you a troll, so don't expect any answer

Just buy a non transforming statue if you don't want to transform
Get the threeZero one if you don't want to transform, it is very movie accurate
Love your videos and the qualities great, love this version of Megatron.
Just ordered mine! Should arrive on my birthday 🎂
where did u order it from

Tried to get this on Iacon Store lol - man that place is a nightmare to navigate
So beautiful! ❤
I just ordered mine Last Knight ( pun indeed intended ) from Show Z Store I can't wait to get it.
i didn't think they would simplify certain things on this KO, kind of a pity, still very nice figure though
When they put leds in the head they had to modify the way of switching faces, maybe it also affected that
They didn't simplify anything. The head is slightly less articulated because it's a new sculpt that has LEDs in the eyes. That's literally the only difference.

@@DiggitySlice ah yes, clearly I'm worshipping anyone..., grow up.
I have both the original and the ko, it is simplified but within reason.
Bs02 and ys02 has gotta be one of the best megatron knockoffs
Great review, looking forward to when mines arrives love the accurate added details and paint in the KO. And yes the sword is accurate to the movie it didn’t have those gold accents. Will have the KO displayed for the robot mode and the UT as his alt.
I just ordered one. Looking forward to it. The official just looked too big.
How is it?
It is excellent
where did u order it from
showz
Now im gonna wait for the lt toys prime black mamba version to scale well with this figure
Excellent review as always, mine is on its way, waiting for the inevitable UT Challenger KO too.

This looks beautiful
“Applied hate”. Lol 7:45

If only EmgO reviewed this. Then we’d have a good comparison.
Yea Ben is bad in that department. Not having rulers to make size comparisons, just comparing with random items he has nearby.
Might want to get this myself if I can find it for a good price. Thanks for the review, mate!
ShowZ Store sells it for about 100 USD
If I liked TLK more, I would buy this and Challenger cause I love the designs. But I'm getting Movie Leader Optimus Prime and some kind of MPM styled Megatron.
Use cold water. Heating it makes the pieces expand...chinese finger cuffs
Does this still have the loose joint issue? I really want to buy this.
just out of curiosity, how does this guy feel in hand compared to unique toys dragoon? Does he feel cheap and hollow or does he feel like a quality piece?
Pretty nice quality
amazing 😳
I’m so late but what are the batteries for the led eyes on this guy
I think you can lube the shield peg??? make it so it can slide in and out yet hold in there tight enough???
Looks great, but transforming it, especially the legs/wings is a nightmare.
Only at first. Once you figure it out and transform it a couple times, it’s quite simple.
What type of battery is it using?
I ordered from tf-direct on May 22nd and it says my order is awaiting shipping. Anyone still waiting?
What batteries does he take? Want mentioned in the review
I heard the batteries is packaged with the fig (and preinstalled). But idk
For Skybreaker, is the knee joint made out of Diecast metal?
I looked at product shots and it looks like it’s made out of plastic.
Skybreaker has less diecast than Dragoon. So probably its plastic and yeah it looks like plastic too.
It's diecast. I had to tighten them up with super glue and paper towel.
I wonder how Ben gets his figures so fast. I pre ordered it and I still gotta wait 2 weeks to get mine
Because they give him special treatment because he's "famous"
Great review, hey Ben, do you know something about more KO OS mainline figures?
Why does it say estimate arrival may 2021!????
I'm glad I waited to get Dragoon, because I definitely like Skybreaker more. The light up eyes, better paint and detail, not so big. I just ordered mine.
12:35 Not something I expected to hear in a review, gotta say :D
Ah yes megatrons butt plug
Where can I order BMB/ black Mamba figure I can’t find them
Hello, you can find all of the Black Mamba figures here: iacon.store/
i order mines here
Which megatron you prefer? UT or BS?
Buy both
@@robertfang8437 negative, I have limited space
@@nedlan1857 my opinion, UT version is better
UT version. I have both and the quality of BS is not good as the UT version
What size batteries does it take
Energizer 392
Will Weijiang Still make a Transformers Figure?
I hope soo...😞 I missed their Optimus Thunder Leader...& Unfinished projects of IRON HIDE
Where have you guys been? Wei jiang has been shut down already. Owner and a few other people have been arrested and charged. Wei jiang ain't coming back.
@@Mendosen86 damn, they made really good toys.
Whoever told me this is easy is lying, I even found Nero to be easier than this
what battery is the best for this guy
Energizer 392
Why you did not compare the size with the Unique Toys Challenger? !!!!!!! why ?? !! you fuck up your review !!!!
damn!!!!!!!!!
